come and discover Montmajour abbey in photos.
Montmajour Abbey has always had a special relationship with photography. This dialogue intensified in the early 1990s, when the Caisse Nationale des Monuments Historiques et des Sites took over its management. At that time, several photographic commissions were awarded to artists whose work was subsequently presented at the Rencontres de la photographie d'Arles.
The "Montmajour, mise(s) à jour" exhibition invites us to rediscover the work of several of these photographers - Père Formiguera, Humberto Rivas and Hugues de Wurstemberger - in dialogue with a contemporary creation by Anna Katerina Scheidegger.
Produced in the early winter of 2025, her series renews our perception of the monument through a geometric and detailed approach, revealing new facets of the abbey and prolonging its mystery, "which will never end".
This exhibition was conceived in collaboration with Louis Mesplé, director of the Rencontres de la photographie d'Arles in the early 1990s.
